Just was curious about who everyones favorite author was and was kind of hoping to expand my reading to other authors
Myself i love R. A. Salvatores work (i have read some 30-40 books of his and have enjoyed them all) i especially love his Legacy of Drizzt(Forgotten Realms) and Drizzt is my favorite character of all time and i just love Guenhwyvar his panther companion
i highly recomend his work to anybody unfamiliar with it

Woo Hoo go drizzt. Now on to the topic I like rowling (harry potter), tolkien (Lord of the rings), D. J. MacHale (Pendragon), Douglas Adams (Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy), Christopher Paolini (Inheritance or Eragon if you prefer), and Kaza Kingsley (Erec Rex)

I have yet to read a ForgottenRealms book (role played it a couple of times). The wide mix of writers of Dragonlance, H.P. Lovecraft well all of his works. I'll need to dig through some books to get some more. Poe for his lookout on life.

Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams most certainly. Karl Scroeder (Permanence, Sun of Suns, etc) and Phillip Reeve (Starcross, Mortal Engines, Here Lies Arthur) as well.

Odd I didn't think of these writers. Jules Verne and H. G. Wells, truly amazing writers.
